 It's a good place to start.......but September 21, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
When I decided to start playing fighting games again, I looked for some joysticks that would work well with a PS3. On the stock side, this is pretty much the only thing that I could find outside of importing something from play-asia.
I liked it a lot at first, even though I wish the layout of the buttons could be rotated about 20 degrees counterclockwise. Oh well!
As I use it more and more, it really seems like the buttons are getting unresponsive at times. Even while playing in training mode, often times while performing attacks in SC that are are easy to do (such as BB) it will only input the first command. This makes things such as Taki's WR,BKB extremely risky to do, because the move is not performed a lot.
I had zero problem with this move when I first got it.
It is hard to say, but I've only logged about 70 hours into the game so far, and I'm already looking to buy another stick.
I think I'm going to end up investing in a custom made stick, but I will cringe at what that is going to cost me. Oh well!
In short? Consider these a stop gap product. If you are not sure you would prefer using a joystick, pick up one of these to try it out. If you like it, and stick with the game, invest in something custom made.
If you are sure, skip this thing altogether.
By the way, the 'PS' button on this stick does not turn your PS3 on, you have to turn it on with a standard controller or by pressing the button on the console. It works as it should once the unit is powered on though.
 Super extra for our game playing! September 19, 2008
This 'stick' is so much fun that our children fight over who gets to use it over the normal controls. We will be purchasing another one of these very soon!
 Works great September 19, 2008
Works great! Responsive and clean. Only issue issue is that sometimes it doesn't hit the right command as accurately as I'd wish. Overall it works great with SC4 and no big issues.
Awesome! September 12, 2008
The Soul Calibur 4 arcade stick makes it so much easier to do the difficult combos. If you're a fan of playing online this is a must have.
Great joystick September 7, 2008
It's a great joystick for Soul Calibur. Definitely worth the 50 or so I paid for it. Another nice thing is that since it is usb other fighting games on the ps3 can use it. And if you have old ps1 or ps2 fighting games and a backwards compatible PS3, you can use this stick on those games as well.
